I dont really know if its a good idea Paul because laser will blur the clear window:)

Thanks Imeo.

I thought there were etched tanks out there in the market but I'm possibly getting polycarbonate confused with pyrex. I'll have to search around for some more info because I really don't know much about it to be honest :unsure:

There are laser engraved pyrex tanks Paul, you're right

I dont say that it cant be done, I just say that engraving will not look good on clear window buddy. We need clear window to see the juice as clear as we can. Thats only my opinion of course:)

I'd have to agree here... partially because it's easier to see the juice, but more because etching on glass (and clear plastic too, I'm sure) just rarely ever looks good.

Another reason that I cant do that is because I made the glass as thin as I could do it, to make it capable for more juice. My tries were focused to make it as short as possible but still able to take much liquid in it Paul. So making the glass thinner by engraving it would cause us problems.

I always have to my mind that atomizers have to be as short a possible. Now I am thinking that atomizers or tanks have to be as thinner as I can make them. The future for me is thin and short:)

I'm not seeing the point of putting Achilles inside Ody. Ody already has a rebuildable in it.

But I'm guessing you will need parts from the expansion kit to do it.

That's true, I was thinking more along the lines of a nicer looking tank, but yeah the Ody does already have a good rebuildable.
Looks like I'll just have to get a UFS!

This part would make it happen in Ody, or maybe a short piece like this... for regular sized ody. (original part from ody expansion)

Odysseus Atomizer Insert - 510/CE2 Mode

Im wondering how this will fare against 4 that have been circulating already, Sub Zero, Fog, Killer 705, and now Amp tank (different atty but the concepts are similiar)

I saw the amp tank last night online. From what I can tell it's like a UFS and for $120 it looks cheap. I'd much rather have a UFS, but I'm sure it will be a hit with folks who don't own a GGTS.

And knowing Imeo's products I'm sure Achilles will at least hold its own against the competition if not out perform it.

You need a lot more than that , you need to make it long mode , mouth piece , the 510/CE2 center pin , the plastic 510/CE2 insulator , 510 mouth piece cone nut. I think that's it.

I want the kit complete , with everything , o-rings and all , and be done with it. Short , long , 510/CE2 , ect....lol

Just my :2c:

you need the expansion kit as river said sub
Just curious.. how will Achilles be able to go inside Ody? I'm having a hard time picturing it. That would be awesome, though!
Would it basically just screw into where the ceramic housing screws into?
